Benefits of technology

Enhances mobility and usability of mirror displays by allowing operation with battery power alone, reducing power consumption, and enabling continuous functionality even without external power, thus improving user experience.

Problems solved by technology

The mirror display using only external power has a limitation in mobility, so that usability thereof may deteriorate.
However, when the size of a display of the mirror display is largest, for example, the display has a size of at least 14 inches, a large amount of power may be consumed when operating the display.
In this case, it may be difficult to configure the mirror display so that the mirror display is operated only by a battery.
